Every year on June 19th, communities, healthcare providers, and policymakers around the world gather to commemorate World Sickle Cell Awareness Day, a globally recognised event dedicated to raising awareness about sickle cell disease, one of the most common inherited blood disorders affecting millions of people worldwide. This occasion is especially meaningful in India, where sickle cell disease has a significant impact on tribal and rural people.

In this blog, we explore the importance of World Sickle Cell Day, the key symptoms and management of sickle cell disease, and how patients across Delhi NCR can access specialist haematological care.
